Use A WordPress Download Manager To Hide Download Links And Track Download Numbers 

You're welcome Valora, thanks for watching!

You're welcome Reed, thanks for watching! Let me know if you have any questions :)

Keep making valuable content that your audience loves and you'll be needing this plugin before you know it.

Cool, I’m happy I could help.

@@wplearninglab How do you turn off the link to the download page. How do you allow users to download without viewing the download manager page?

You're welcome, thanks for watching!

Thanks for your kind words Achaninga 😀

It's definitely a great plugin and the price is right! :)

You're welcome Steve, thanks for watching!

Also what's the use of the "Templates"? How could I use them to customize view?

Hi Mohammad, Those are not changeable using options in the plugin, but all of those things can be changed using custom CSS.

Hi Sarfe, Great suggestion. I'll add it to my list of videos to make.

Is it possible only on the premium version?

Thanks for your like and subscribe! I appreciate it! It is possible to have individual client pages accessible only to you in the business and one client. The easiest options are membership plugins. You could make a membership level for each client. And then create a page or pages for each of your clients with their financial reports and assign those pages to the appropriate client's membership level. I've been slowly working on something else that could work. I haven't completed it yet, but it will become a tutorial on this channel. Here's the concept. Every user in WP has access to their own profile page in the back end of WordPress. Using some plugins you can make this profile page a front-end page that only shows the content linked to that client's profile. Then you can use a page builder like Elementor to make that front-end page good to look and easy to use. Like I said, I haven't completed work on the second solution. But the first idea will work right away with Paid Memeberships Pro or Wishlist Memeber, both of which I've used and can recommend. I hope that helps, let me know if you have any further questions. Thanks for watching!

Using this plugin there's no way to do it backwards as far as I know. You wouldn't have to add them in a new page with this process. Just add them to the plugin then put the shortcode on the same page the videos are already on.

@@wplearninglab Thank you for such great tutorials...your a great teacher!!! I know you answered the above question, but dont understand... How do you add them to the plugin with out making a new page???...please explain...how to "Just add them to the plugin then put the shortcode on the same page the videos are already on." Thank you in advance!!

Hi Gustaf, You can have folders outside of the public dir in most hosting accounts. But those folders won't be accessible by the public. You can create folders outside of the public_html folder using FTP or the file manager in cpanel. I hope that helps and thanks for watching!

Hi Roger, Instead of dragging the PDF from iPages and iBook are you able to export it? Or find the original PDF file on your hard drive? I think you may be trying to drag and drop the PDF out of a third party program, rather than dragging the original file. Let me know if that helps!

WordPress Tutorials - WPLearningLab I even tried importing it into my cpanel DB and uploading it from the folder. Same error message. FYI I’m using an iPad.

The trouble with iPads (and smart phones for that matter) is they don't really give you the access you need to raw PDF files, the usually load them in an 'app' that isn't really the true PDF file. Also, you don't want to upload into the DB, but rather inside the file manager. Or you can log into your WordPress site and upload it into the Media Library or directly in to the Download Manager like I walk you through in this tutorial. I hope that helps!

Hi Frank, I'm not sure why that would be unless there's a paid version that lifts that restriction. Some things I would try is logging out of your WP site, then log in again and try again. I would check to make sure there isn't some limit on your server's side as well.

I don't know if this integrated with WooCommerce, but my feeling is that it doesn't. If you are just selling video courses and no other merchandise I would use just the course creation plugin. I use LearnDash on my site it will lock content, connect to payment processors and automatically add buyers to the course they bought. LearnDash isn't free, but there are others that are free, like LifterLMS. I have used the others, but the should have similar functionality. I hope that helps, let me know if you have any further questions. Thanks for watching!

Hi Christine, what does the error message say? Are all your plugins, theme and WordPress core files up-to-date? If not, that can cause issues.

Hi Anirudh, Would the user be adding random numbers or are they selecting a number from a menu? I haven't this partially done already in this tutorial: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-yENOmLNHHlM.html The code from that tutorial can be changed to detect a number in a specific field and the "location" option can be updated to be a link to a PDF.

and its scaled unproportianal, you're adressing website people here, better take care of beginner errors like that.

That is unfortunate, maybe in the pro version?

Hi Muhammad, As far as security goes, it depends what's in the zip file. Most hacking attempts are automated. The hacker's bots look for files that have security vulnerabilities. These are files in plugins or themes or WordPress core. If your zip file contains PDFs or images or word documents you'll be fine. Keeping the zip on your server doesn't create a security risk in that case. I hope that helps and thanks for watching!

Thanks for replying brother, if I add videos in that zip file then? Does create a security issues?

Hi Meneer, did you receive an error message?

Google Chrome. I don't know the version number

thanks pro
